She & Him is an American indie duo consisting of Zooey Deschanel (vocals, piano, ukulele) and M. Ward (guitar, production). The band's first album, Volume One, was released on Merge Records in March 2008. The duo is augmented by session musicians Rachel Blumberg (drums), Mike Mogis (pedal steel guitar, mandolin) and Mike Coykendall (bass, guitar).
Deschanel and Ward first met on the set of the film The Go-Getter, in which the actress had a starring role. The director, Martin Hynes, introduced them to each other and asked them to sing a duet together to be played at the end credits of the film. They decided to perform a Richard and Linda Thompson song "When I Get to the Border." The two bonded over a shared interest in the records produced by George Martin and Phil Spector and by certain Ralph Peer groups such as the Carter Family.
Ward, having heard Deschanel sing previously in the film Elf, was surprised to learn that she wrote songs herself, but hadn't pursued a career in music. Deschanel comments in an interview with Venus Zine, “I always thought I would be able to sing and act, but at a certain point, it became difficult for me to share the music part. So I was writing a ton of music, but not really doing anything with it. I didn’t really know exactly who to collaborate with ... until I met Matt, and everything seemed to fall into place.” Deschanel had actually done years' worth of home demos, but was shy about becoming a big-name celebrity. On a whim, she decided to send them to Ward. Ward called her a short time later, telling her that he would like to record her songs properly, and their band She & Him was formed.[citation needed] Deschanel said in an interview: "I always have loved music, ever since I was really little. I just loved to sing."

I don't like you, but I love you
Seems that I'm always thinkin' of you
Oh, you treat me badly
I love you madly
You really gotta hold on me

Don't wanna kiss you, but I need to
Oh, you do me wrong now
My love is strong now
You really gotta hold on me

I love you and all I want you to do is just

I wanna leave you, don't wanna stay here
I don't wanna spend another day here
Oh, you do me wrong now
My love is strong now

I said you really gotta hold on me
(You really gotta hold)
I love you and all I want you to do is just

Why do you let me stay here?
All by myself
Why don’t you come and play here?
I’m just sitting on the shelf
Why don’t you sit right down and stay a while?
We like the same things and I like your style
It’s not a secret, why do you keep it?
I’m just sitting on the shelf
I’ve got to get your presence
Let’s make it known
I think you’re just so pleasant
I would like you for my own
Why don’t you sit right down and make me smile?
You make me feel like I am just a child
Why do you edit? Just give me credit

For those of you who tried but didn’t make it
Settle down it’s never what you think
The summit doesn’t differ from the deep dark valley
And the valley doesn’t differ from the kitchen sink
For those of you who thought you’d be forgotten
The friends you’ve made will try their best to make it so
Think of all the beauty that you’ve left behind you
You can take it if you want it and then let it go.
And this is not a test
No this is not a test
Taking numbers never made sense anyways
No this is not a test
No this is not a test
‘cause you can have it if you want it anyways
For those of us who try to keep remembering
We try to do our better than our best
We think of all the children in the drifts of snow
Winners never quit but winters never rest
And this is not a test
No this is not a test
Taking numbers never made sense anyways
No this is not a test
No this is not a test
‘cause you can have it if you want it anyways
There's thieves among us, painting the walls
With all kinds of lies, and lies I never told at all
What's in my pocket, you never knew
You didn't know me well so well as I knew you
And I know and you know too
A love like ours is terrible news
But that won't stop me crying
No that won't stop me crying over you
I'm not a prophet
Old love is in me
New love just seeps right in
And it makes me guilty
Why do you look like that?
It's not all that bad
I'll see you sometime
Sometimes lonely isn't sad
And I know and you know too
A love like ours is terrible news
But that won't stop me crying
No that won't stop me crying over you
No that won't stop me crying over you
We two are makers just made this mess
Two broken hearts don't beat any less
There's thieves among us, painting the walls
With all kinds of lies, and lies I never told at all
And I know and you know too
A love like ours is terrible news
But that won't stop me crying
No that won't stop me crying over you
No that won't stop me crying over you

Take it back
Oh take it back
I don’t want your lovin’ anymore
Let me live
Oh let me live
It’s not you who I sing for
So don’t sit next to me
Sit by yourself…
I don’t want to wonder
Whether you love me
I don’t want to wonder
Whether you care
So don’t try to woo me
Don’t try to fool me
Oh, I know all of your tricks
It’s the possibility of staying in my corner
I don’t want to wonder
Whether you love me
I don’t want to wonder
Whether you care
So don’t try to woo me
Don’t try to fool me
Oh, I know all of your tricks
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home

Coming for to carry me home

When I was a little bit younger
The strain I was under
Could make me cry
Now I’m a little bit older
A little bit bolder
I’m never so shy!

Come hold me
(come hold me)
Just a little bit longer now

Come hold me

Just a little bit longer now

When things were a little bit clearer
When we got nearer
I shied from your touch
Now that I now what I want, see,
I think that it haunts me
Talkin' on the phone, and watchin' Cribs
He doesn't know what kinda guy he is.
He's got a gold plated ceiling in the TV show,
A broken heart and he doesn't even know.
He's glad to see you
Yes, he's glad to see you
Open your arms and sing
The world's been waiting, they've been waiting for years
And they've just gotta hear
The kids are all waiting, they've been shedding tears
So open your arms and sing for us
World can be quiet when you're up too late
I'm just a childhood prisoner of a garden gate
If its broke, then kick it, dust yourself off
Find a quiet place and have a good laugh
I'm glad to see you
Yes, I'm glad to see you
Open your arms and sing
The world's been waiting, they've been waiting for years.
The kids are crying, they've been shedding tears
So open your arms and sing for us

Cried all night ‘til there was nothing more
What use am I as a heap on the floor?
Heaving devotion but it’s just no good
Taking it hard just like you knew I would
Old habits die hard
When you’ve got
When you’ve got a sentimental heart
Piece of the puzzle you’re my missing part
Oh, what can you do with a sentimental heart?
Oh, what can you do with a sentimental heart?
Cried all night ‘til there was nothing more
What use am I as a heap on the floor?
Heaving devotion but it’s just no good
Taking it hard just like you knew I would
Old habits die hard
When you’ve got
When you’ve got a sentimental heart
Piece of the puzzle I’m your missing part
Oh, what can you do with a sentimental heart?
Remember last summer when we had the chance
To find each other, start makin' romance?
It didn't come off, 'cause you found another
Without one hand of the clock, what good is the other?
And I can't find no true love, oh, baby, it's so hard
And I still think about you every time I'm ridin' in my
car (Ridin' in my car)
So I went to the place where everybody hangs out
To see what everybody was talkin' about
And over in the corner, all alone with you
Was the boy from last summer singin' songs to you
And he can't sing what I can sing, oh, it's so hard
And I still think about you every time I'm ridin' in my
car (Ridin' in my car)
When I'm home alone, I can think of other things to do
But when I'm rollin' in forward motion, I think about
only you
It's been a year and a day since I talked to you
I don't know how I made it, but I sure have been blue
Every time I think of what might have been
I jump in my car and start ridin' again
And I can't find no true love, oh, baby, it's so hard
And I still think about you every time I'm ridin' in my
car (Ridin' in my car)
I can't find no true love, oh, baby, it's so hard
And I still think about you every time I'm ridin' in my
Good times for a change
See, the luck I've had
Can make a good man
Turn bad
So please please please
Let me, let me, let me
Let me get what I want
This time
Havent had a dream in a long time
See, the life I've had
Can make a good man bad
So for once in my life
Let me get what I want
Lord knows, it would be the first time
Why do I always want to sock it to you hard?
Let you know what love is like when I'm keeping all my cards up on the shelf
Where you can't see them
Why do I always want to keep it to myself?
Taking advantage only works when you're leaving someone else out in the dark I didn't mean to
Running away from you Is just like running a business
And I'm keeping up with the games you play
Well I'm back in your good graces, again.
Remember when you told me that I was your only friend
well you made the best of this life where you never knew
one day from the next, dig your heels in a little girl
put them to the test
you gotta be kind to yourself.
you gotta be kind to yourself
well i heard you had the blues again
seems like all those little things add up in the end
well i know that you heard a lot about things you can't control
so many things we like to have, we just cannot hold.
you gotta be kind to yourself.
you gotta be kind to yourself.
you gotta be kind to yourself.
People come, people go
Sometimes without goodbye,
sometimes without hello
I've got one magic trick
Just one and that's it
Ooh... I disappear
It's like, now you see me, now you don't
You think you're gonna get to know me now,
well you I've just got one magic trick
Just one and that's it
Ooh... Ooh... I disappear
Aah... Aah...
It's like, easy come, easy go
Sometimes without goodbye,
sometimes without hello
I've got one magic trick
Just one and that's it
Ooh... I disappears
It's gonna take a lotta love
to change the way things are
it's gonna take a lotta love
or we won't get too far
so if you're looking in my direction
and we don't see eye to eye
my heart needs protection
and so do I
it's gonna take a lotta love
to make it through the night
it's gonna take a lotta love
or we won't work out right
so I hope you're out there waiting
and I hope you show up soon
because my head needs relating
not solitude
I like to learn things slow
I like learning a lot
I like to get it all again and in the end
You know you get what you got
I like to mean what I say
But it don't always come through
Because if I say it all again, again, again
It doesn't make it all true
And the world's like a science
And I'm like a secret
And I saw you lingering still, still
I saw you lingering still
It's all just news to me
Don't really care if it hurts
Because if I know it I won't know it
Then I know that it will only get worse
He was different at first
But then he won't understand
Because he's never going to know me
If he doesn't want to just shake my hand
And the world's like a science
And I'm like a secret
And I saw you lingering still, still
It's hard to be ignore
When I look at you, you look so bored
My baby, my darling, I've been taking a beating...
Well alright (well alright)
It's okay (It's okay)
We all get the slip sometimes every day
I'll just keep it to myself in the sun
In the sun
It's hard to take the blame
When I look at you, you're so ashamed
My baby, my darling, I've been thinking
Of leaving
Well alright (well alright)
It's okay (It's okay)
We all get the slip sometimes every day
I'll just keep it to myself in the sun
In the sun
Well alright (well alright)
It's okay (It's okay)
We all feel ashamed sometimes every day
I'll just keep it to myself in the sun
If you can't sleep
I'll be there in your dreams
I'll be there in your dreams
If you can't sleep at all
And in your dreams
I'll touch your cheek
And lay my head on your shoulder
Goodbye shadows
Goodbye shadows
You're far away
If you can't see my face
if the world is cold
but the sun shines the same
Shut your eyes
There are bluer skies
for your embrace to my heart
Goodbye shadows
Goodbye shadows
If you can't sleep
I'll be there in your dreams
I'll be there in your dreams
If you can't sleep at all
And in your dreams
I'll touch your cheek
Looking for a letter Trace it in the Sand
Nothing was lost on the way
I couldn't stay holding your hand
Hours on the sidewalk staring at the sun
Everyone is wasting away wasting the day
jumping the gun
I know it all comes full circle
it all comes crashing down on you
Hide in your heart
Chase it til the morning
Sunlight is lost in your eyes
you never tried facing these things
Walking on a circle taking staking on a stride
Faces are not what they seem
I always dream facing the tide
I know it all comes full circle,
It all comes crashing down on you
I'm gonna make it make it better
I'm gonna get the best lock it and swallow the key
I'm gonna make it make it better
I'm gonna get the best lock it and swallow the key
I'm gonna make it make it better
I'm gonna get the best lock it and swallow the key
I'm gonna make it make it better
I'll be home for christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree
Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for christmas
If only in my dreams
Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home christmas

I was taking a walk
When I saw you pass by
I thought I saw you looking my way
So I thought I’d give you a try
When I saw you smile
I saw a dream come true
So I asked you maybe, baby
What you gonna do?
‘Cause I have been waiting for a long long time
for a boy like you
I won’t be waiting anymore ‘cause I know
I was made for you

I thought I saw your face today
But I just turned my head away
Your face against the trees
But I just see the memories
As they come
As they come
And I couldn’t help but fall in love again
No I couldn’t help but fall in love again
I saw it glitter as I grew
And loved it why I never knew
I thought this place was heaven sent
But now it’s just a monument
In my mind
In my mind
And I couldn’t help but fall in love again
No I couldn’t help but fall in love again
The cars and freeways implore me to stay
Away out of this place
My mother said, “just keep your head,
And play it as it lays.”
I somehow see what’s beautiful
In things that are ephemeral
I’m my only friend of mine
And love is just a piece of time
In the world
In the world
And I couldn’t help but fall in love again
I shoulda known better with a guy like you
that I would love everything that you do
and I do
hey hey hey and I do
I never realized what a kiss could be
this could only happen to me
can't you see
can't you see
That when I tell you that I love you
you're gonna say you love me too
and when I ask you to be mine
You're gonna say you love me too
I never realized what a kiss could be
this could only happen to me
can't you see
can't you see
That when I tell you that I love you
you're gonna say you love me too
and when I ask you to be mine
Hair got caught in the sunlight, darling
But I just wasted the day
I knew it would happen this way
Can't get up in the morning lately
And I'm just stuck in a dream
I'm always in this ship in the stream
I'm not wasting away and you don't want me anymore
You're free to do what you want, I know
But I can't be on the clock
Ah... Oo...
This is the way
I always dreamed it would be
The way that it is, oh
When you are holding me
I never had a love of my own
Maybe that's why when we're all alone
I can hear music
I can hear music
The sound of the city baby
Seems to disappear, oh when
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
Whenever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near
Loving you
It keeps me satisfied
And I can't explain, oh no
The way I'm feeling inside
You look at me, we kiss and then
I close my eyes and here it comes again
I can hear music
I can hear music
The sound of the city baby
Seems to disappear, oh when
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
Whenever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near
I hear the music all the time, yeah
I hear the music hold me tight now baby
I hear the music all the time
I hear the music
I hear the music (baby)
Ahh...
I can hear music
I can hear music
The sound of the city baby
Seems to disappear, oh when
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
Whenever you touch me baby

They never knew what they wanted til it was already gone
What do they do with the light in the morning when they wake up alone?
They just go home

Youre the nicest, nicest boy Ive ever met

I think about you then I think about you again
And again
Why dont we just sit and stare and do nothing?

Orpheus melted the heart of Persephone, but I never had yours
I followed you back to the end of the path, but I never found the door
And you can work to save your love
You can bear it from the earth below
You can work but you can't let go
Oh, oh but you have to know
Don't look back all you'll ever get is the dust from the steps before
I don't have to see you every day, but I just want to know you're there
Quietly took to the dark of the day and the hiss of the summer night
The heat of the breeze was a cell block wall and when I looked you were out of sight
And you can work to save your love
You can bear it from the earth below
You can work but you can't let go
Oh, oh but you have to know
Don't look back all you'll ever get is the dust from the steps before
I don't have to see you every day, but I just want to know you're there

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping on your nose,
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir,
And folks dressed up like Eskimos.
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe,
Help to make the season bright.
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow,
Will find it hard to sleep tonight.
They know that Santa's on his way;
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh.
And every mother's child is going to spy,
To see if reindeer really know how to fly.
And so I'm offering this simple phrase,
To kids from one to ninety-two,
Although its been said many times, many ways,

I’m all out of luck but what else could I be?
I know he’s yours and he’ll never belong to me again
I did him wrong
So don’t brag
Keep it to yourself
I did him wrong
I was never, no I was never, no I was never enough
But I can try, I can try to toughen up
I listened when they told me if he burns you let him go
Change is hard I should know
So I’ll keep my head down if you keep it quiet from now on
In the halls I’d rather hear silence
Than the bells of new love
So don’t brag
Keep it to yourself
I did him wrong
I was never, no I was never, no I was never enough
But I can try, I can try to toughen up
I listened when they told me if he burns you let him go
Change is hard
if you ever change your mind
about leaving, leaving me behind
bring it to me, bring your sweet loving
and bring it on home to me
yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah
I'll give you jewelry and money too
and that ain' all, all I'll do for you
oh, bring it to me,
bring your sweet loving
bring it on home to me

They were all red but they gave me the blues
And they're runnin' away, they left me a letter

My eyes are so bleary
I guess I’m young but
I feel so weary
I try to express it
But I think it’s all a bore
It’s at the heart of me
A very part of me
Speak slowly I can’t hear you
My mind keeps spinning
Closer and closer
To the rain on the roof
And the rain in my head
And the things that you said
Keep on sinking further ahead
And it just gets
So foggy
It’s nowhere in here
And it’s everywhere else
That I don’t want to be
But I’m stuck here
Getting misty over you
I’m alone on a bicycle for two
City sidewalks busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air
There's a feeling
Of Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
City street lights
Even stop lights
Blinking red and green
As the shoppers rush
Home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle
You'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-A-ling, hear them sing
(Verse)
I took a picture, your form was cloudy in the night
You wrote a letter, you said you try to shed some light
On the good and the wicked things we do.
Face my direction, I wanna see you better, dear.
You're a distraction from everything that I feel
And the good and the wicked things I do.
(Chorus)
Sometimes, oh, sometimes,
I think I can fade away.
In the light, oh, the light
Of an ever sunny day.
But I'm stronger than the picture that you took before you left
In the light, it faded to white.
In the light, the colors turn to white.
(Verse)
Indian summer, I caught a glimpse of things to come
Racing to finish, I never think before I run
To the good and the wicked things you do.
(Chorus)
Sometimes, oh, sometimes,
I think I can fade away.
In the light, oh, the light
Of an ever sunny day.
But I'm stronger than the picture that you took before you left
In the light, it faded to white.
In the light, the colors turn to white.
In light it faded to white.
In the light the colors turn to white.
In light it faded to white.
In the light the colors turn to white.
(Verse)
You and I, we built a shadow of love
You and I, we built a shadow of love
In our hearts is where the future should be
Thereâ s no tomorrow to set me free.
You and I, we told a story of love
You and I, we told a story of love
From our hearts, but it never came true,
Thereâ s no tomorrow for me and you.
(Bridge)
We were so young, we shouldâ ve known
Loveâ s as brutal as a broken bone.
We couldnâ t see around the bend
We spround the yard without an end, without an end.
(Verse)
Time goes by, itâ s only shades of gray
Time goes by, itâ s only shades of gray
In my heart, where the colors should be
My little baby
Oh, little baby
I know I told you
A million or more times that I
I love you so
I want to be sure
You know that I need you, and I
I'll never let you go
Oh, little baby
My little baby
If you should want me
I'll come when you call me
Yes, I'll be around
Don't ever worry
As long as you need me, you know
I'll never let you down
I want to be with you
Till the day I die
Your love will see me through
That's the reason why, why
I want to hold you
So close to my heart that you
You can hear me say
Tell me you love me
And make me a promise that you
You'll never go away
Oh, little baby
My little baby
Oh, little baby
Oh, little baby (My little baby)
Oh, little baby (My little baby)
It doesn't matter, if I were willing
It doesn't matter that the lights are dimmed down low, oh oh
I know you have to go
It doesn't matter, I fought my heart
It's broke and shattered to a million and one
Undone, I guess I haven't won
'Cause I could've been your girl
And you could've been my four leaf clover
If I could do it over I'd send you the pillow that I cry on
It doesn't matter, I've just begun
And if you see me, just move on
Cause we are free and never meant to be
'Cause I could've been your girl
And you could've been my four leaf clover
If I could do it over I'd send you the pillow that I cry on
'Cause I could've been your girl
And you could've been my four leaf clover
If I could do it over I'd send you the pillow that I cry on
'Cause I could've been your girl
And you could've been my four leaf clover
Hold me, hold me
And never let me go until you've told me, told me
What I want to know and then just hold me, hold me
Make me tell you I'm in love with you
Thrill me (thrill me), thrill me (thrill me)
Walk me down the lane where shadows
will be (will be) will be (will be)
Hiding lovers just the same as we'll be, we'll be
When you make me tell you I love you
They told me "Be sensible with your new love"
"Don't be fooled, thinking this is the last you'll find"
But they never stood in the dark with you, love
When you take me in your arms
and drive me slowly out of my mind
Kiss me (kiss me), kiss me (kiss me)
And when you do, I'll know that you
will miss me (miss me), miss me (miss me)
If we ever say "Adieu", so kiss me, kiss me
Make me tell you I'm in love with you
(Kiss me) kiss me, (kiss me) kiss me
When you do, I'll know that you will
miss me (miss me), miss me (miss me)
If we ever say "Adieu" so kiss me, kiss me
Frosted windowpanes
Candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree
Santa's on his way
He's filled his sleigh with things
Things for you and for me
It's that time of year
When the world falls in love
Every song you hear seems to say
"Merry Christmas
May your new year's dreams come true"
And this song of mine
In three quarter time
Wishes you and yours
The same thing, too
It's that time of year
When the world falls in love
Every song you hear
Seems to say
"Merry Christmas
May your new year dreams come true"
And this song of mine
In three quarter time
Wishes you and yours
(Verse)
I know a girl from a lonely street,
Cold as icecream, but still as sweet,
Dry your eyes, Sunday girl.
Hey, I saw your girl with a different girl,
Looks like he's in another world,
Running high, Sunday girl.
(Chorus)
Hurry up, hurry up and wait,
I stay awake all week and still I wait
I got the bruise, please come see
What your love it makes to me.
(Verse)
She can't catch up with the working grind
The weekend lude and she's feeling bright
Living dream Sunday girl.
Baby, I would like to go out tonight,
If I go with you, my folks will get uptight,
Stay at home, Sunday girl.
(Chorus)
Hurry up, hurry up and wait,
I stay awake all week and still I wait
I got the bruise, please come see
What your love it makes to me.
(Verse)
Hey, j'ai vu ton mec
Avec une autre fille
Il est dans un autre monde
Go caucher, Sunday girl.
Comme je t'ai revue
L'était, j'ai decide
C'est ton t'apparait
Je peux retrait, Sunday girl.
(Chorus)
Depeche toi, depeche toi, j'attend
Tout c'est mareleuxement like peut'en j'attend
J'ai les couffeur, je t'ai previen voire
C'est un je meure et peuvant peux moi.
Depeche toi, depeche toi, j'attend
Tout c'est mareleuxement like peut'en j'attend
J'ai les couffeur, je t'ai previen voire
C'est un je meure et peuvant peux moi.
Gardez-vous, hurry up, hurry up,
Hurry up and wait.
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up,
Come and see
Oh, London, where the clouds never go away
I keep my coat on from September till May
When the tulips will bloom in the most unusual way.
Oh, London, I love you, but the clouds never go away.
Oh, London, where it's goomy in the fall
I can't shake this sadness cause it's never that small.
But we're all sad together, so I'm not alone at all,
Oh, London, I'll leave you, but the sky will always fall.
Oh, London, where the daffodils grow
Each one like a fireball at the end of the meadow
And I always forget there, I could've felt so low
(Verse)
You keep trying to forget about the good times
Does it make you fall a little better?
I'm not alone, I only pick the flowers
Kind of makes you feel a little worthier.
But the chillin turn out fine
I got the pieces if you got the time.
(Chorus)
And I want you, I don't wanna forget
If you go I'll surely get distracted
And I want you, I don't wanna forget
If you go I'll surely get distracted.
I want you, somebody sweet to talk to,
Somebody sweet to talk to.
(Verse)
I don't wanna get stuck in my ways again,
I'm just asking you to stay a couple hours.
I got back to the road where I started
Looking instead of always picking flowers.
Plus the children who turned out fine,
I've got the pieces if you got the time.
(Chorus)
And I want you, I don't wanna forget
If you go I'll surely get distracted
And I want you, I don't wanna forget
If you go I'll surely get distracted.
I want you, somebody sweet to talk to,
Somebody sweet to talk to.
(Chorus)
And I want you, I don't wanna forget
If you go I'll surely get distracted
And I want you, I don't wanna forget
If you go I'll surely get distracted.
I want you, somebody sweet to talk to,
(Verse)
What's a man without all the attention?
Well, he's just a man.
Why do you think no one will hear what you've got to say.
Who am I without all your affection?
I'm a nobody, too.
I'm not at all, thing I love, but that's what I've got to pay.
(Chorus)
And you can tell everyone, everyone
I've got your number, son.
Cause I can try my love, I can try my love onto.
Cause I can shine my love, I can shine my love on you.
(Verse)
I don't wanna spend night after night with you,
Well, you figured it out.
You're getting restless, I'm getting restless looking at you.
I don't wanna be rocking hard times
Cause I figured you out.
You're not a man who can understand anyone but you.
(Chorus)
And you can tell everyone, everyone
I've got your number, son.
Cause I can try my love, I can try my love onto.
Cause I can shine my love, I can shine my love on you.
(Bridge)
I sacrifice myself at the altar of someone else's love for me
No, that doesn't comfort me.
(Verse)
You think you can keep in the shadow
Well, you figure it out.
I've listened to enough of all your stuff to fill a book or two.
(Chorus)
And you can tell everyone, everyone
I've got your number, son.
Cause I can try my love, I can try my love onto.
You seem to be having fun,
Raising your glass to no one, no one
What's a girl to do when something's haunting you again?
When something's haunting you.
You always love a race,
Placing your bets on no one, no one
What am I to do when something's haunting you again?
When something's haunting you.
Your love is a blessed curse,
Actually that gets worse, supernaturally.
The steps on the hall just hopped,
Seem to be going nowhere, nowhere,
What's a girl to do when something's haunting you again?
When something's haunting you again
When something's haunting you again
(Verse)
Well, I would rather do a lot of despicable things
Then sit around and wait, sit around and wait for the telephone to ring.
Why do you wait, what are you waiting for?
Stop looking out the window, looking out the window,
He came at your front door.
(Chorus)
I'm so cold,
But I'm nice beneath the ice.
So deep, never doing as I'm told.
And it's cold outside,
But I think you'll get used to it, darling.
And it's dark out there,
But isn't scary.
I'm the cold, I'm the snow,
Make it hurt until you go.
I'm the dark, I'm the night,
I'm a bark, but never bite,
I'm the snow queen,
I'm the snow queen,
I'm the snow queen,
I won't hold it against you,
Never hold it against you someone else's heart.
And I am not holding back now,
Just give you some slack now,
And I'll become around.
And I like you, but you think too much,
And I don't wanna be your mother
And you could just lay down
And just lay down.
And we'll all go through it together
But we all go at it alone
Yes, we all go through it together
And we all go at it alone.
And I, I don't wanna offence you,
I know that I sense you
Of someone else's heart.
And I have a slimmer of love now
I won't push and shove now,
I hope you'll come around.
And I like you, but you think too much,
And I don't wanna be your mother
And you could just lay down
And just lay down.
And we'll all go through it together
But we all go at it alone
Yes, we all go through it together
And we all go at it alone.
And we'll all go through it together
But we all go at it alone
Yes, we all go through it together
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on,
Our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on,
Our troubles will be miles away.
Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.
Through the years
We all will be together,
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.
Through the years
We all will be together,
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling,
Ring ting tingling too
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling
And friends are calling "yoo hoo",
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you.
Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap,
Let's go, let's look at the show,
We're riding in a wonderland of snow.
Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap,
It's grand, just holding your hand,
We're gliding along with a song
Of a wintry fairy land
Our cheeks are nice and rosy
And comfy cozy are we
We're snuggled up together
Like two birds of a feather would be
Let's take that road before us
And sing a chorus or two
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you.
There's a birthday party
At the home of Farmer Gray
It'll be the perfect ending to a perfect day
We'll be singing the songs
We love to sing without a single stop
At the fireplace while we watch
The chestnuts pop.
There's a happy feeling
Nothing in the world can buy
When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie
It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives
These wonderful things are the things
We remember all through our lives!
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling,
Ring ting tingling too
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling
And friends are calling "yoo hoo",
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you.
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Come on, it's lovely weather
I really can't stay - Baby it's cold outside
I've got to go away - Baby it's cold outside
This evening has been - Been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice - I'll hold your hands, they're just like
My mother will start to worry - Beautiful, what's your
hurry
My father will be pacing the floor - Listen to the
fireplace roar
So really I'd better scurry - Beautiful, please don't
hurry
Maybe just a half a drink more - Put some records on
while I pour
The neighbors might think - Baby, it's bad out there
Say, what's in this drink - No cabs to be had out there
I wish I knew how - Your eyes are like starlight now
To break this spell - I'll take your hat, your hair
looks swell
I ought to say no, no, no - Mind if I move a little
closer
At least I'm gonna say that I tried - What's the sense
in hurting my pride
I really can't stay - Baby don't hold out
Ahh, but it's cold outside
I've got to go home - Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there
Say, lend me your comb - It's up to your knees out
there
You've really been grand - Your eyes are like starlight
But don't you see - How can you do this thing to me
There's bound to be talk tomorrow - Making my life long
sorrow
At least there will be plenty implied - If you caught
pneumonia and died
I really can't stay - Get over that hold out
Ahh, but it's cold outside
Oh baby it's cold outside
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
At the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Every couple tries to stop
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Let the Christmas Spirit ring
Later we'll have some pumpkin pie
And we'll do some caroling
You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear
Voices singing "Let's be jolly;
Deck the halls with boughs of holly"
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone's dancing merrily
In a new old fashioned way
You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear
Voices singing "Let's be jolly;
Deck the halls with boughs of holly"
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone's dancing merrily
I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue jet thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same thing if you're not here with me
And when the snowflakes do falling
Yes, when the blue memories starts calling
I'll be doing all right with your Christmas of white
And I'll have a blue, blue Christmas
I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue jet thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same thing if you're not here with me
And when the blueflakes do falling
Yes, when the blue memories starts calling
I'll be doing all right with your Christmas of white
And I'll have a blue, blue Christmas
I have a blue, blue Christmas
And I have a blue, blue Christmas
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
It's the time of the year
When all good dreams come true
I look at all the toys under the Christmas tree
It makes me think about the way things could be
If people all over the world could just see them too
Every Christmas, every Christmas
There's a magic in the air when the holiday spirits true
I listen to the voices as they floats my way
It must be the music that the angels play
If people all over the world could just hear it too
If we open our hearts, our wishes would come true
They'd come true
I listen to the voices as they floats my way
It must be the music that the angels play
If people all over the world could just hear it too
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
It's the time of the year
When all good dreams come true
I look at all the toys under the Christmas tree
It makes me think about the way things could be
If people all over the world could just see them too
If people all over the world could just see them too
People all over the world could just see them too
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack frost nipping on your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety two
Although its been said many times, many ways
Oooooooo
Merry Christmas Saint Nick
Christmas comes this time each year
Oooooooo oooooooo
Well, way up north where the air gets cold
There's a tale about Christmas that you've all been told
And a real famous cat all dressed up in red
And he spends the whole year workin' out on his sled
It's a little Saint Nick
Ooooo
It's a little Saint Nick
Ooooo
Just a little bobsled we call it old Saint Nick
But she'll walk a toboggan with a four speed stick
She's candy-apple red with a ski for a wheel
And when Santa hits the gas, man, just watch her peel
It's a little Saint Nick
Ooooo
It's a little Saint Nick
Ooooo
Run run reindeer
Run run reindeer
Whoaa
Run run reindeer
Run run reindeer
He don't miss no one
And haulin' through the snow at a frightenin' speed
With a half a dozen deer with Rudy to lead
He's gotta wear his goggles 'cause the snow really flies
And he's cruisin' every pad with a little surprise
It's a little Saint Nick
Ooooo
It's a little Saint Nick
Ooooo
Ahhhhhh
Oooooooo
Merry Christmas Saint Nick
Christmas comes this time each year
Ahhhhhh
Oooooooo
Merry Christmas Saint Nick
Christmas comes this time each year
Ahhhhhh
Oooooooo
Merry Christmas Saint Nick
Christmas comes this time each year
Ahhhhhh
Oooooooo
Merry Christmas Saint Nick
I can't help it, I can't win
I don't wanna let you in
And then you do it again
Take it off but take it slow
I don't wanna let you know
And then you do it again
I'm not talking to you anymore
Making my bed so I can lie there forever
I don't know what I'm doing this for
All I know is that I'm tired of being clever
Everybody's is clever these days
Take a win, take a fall
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
You're so close that I can't see
You keep trying to bother me
And then you do it again
Say you're right and I'll agree
I don't wanna set you free
And then you do it again
I'm not talking to you anymore
I'm making my bed so I can lie there forever
I don't know what I'm doing this for
All I know is that I'm tired of being clever
Everybody's is clever these days
Take a win, take a fall
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
I'm not talking to you anymore
I'm making my bed so I can lie there forever
I don't know what I'm doing this for
All I know is that I'm tired of being clever
Take a win, take a fall
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
Take a win, take a fall
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
I never wanted your love but I needed it all
